Emirates has painted an Airbus A380 in a custom
livery dedicated to Dubai’s newest architectural icon and centre
for pioneering concepts and ideas, the Museum of the Future.
The first Emirates A380 to sport this new livery
is A6-EVK.
The ring shaped, Arabic calligraphy encapsulated
building encircles both sides of the aircraft, and features the
message ‘Journey to the future’ across the fuselage, covering a
total of 336 sqm on the A380.
The first of ten Emirates A380s to sport the Museum of the Future livery is A6-EVK
The façade is decorated with quotes
from His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
Nine other A380s will roll out of the dedicated Aircraft
Appearance Centre at Emirates Engineering over the coming weeks,
and will be deployed on routes to
Europe as well as key regional cities in the Middle East.
The seven storey, pillarless, torus-shaped Museum
of the Future
has become one of Dubai’s definitive design marvels, and aims to
inspire the world to imagine the possibilities of tomorrow,
featuring mesmerising installations and futuristic experiences. The building’s ring forms a void to represent unknown and
undiscovered knowledge.
The museum will also act as an incubator for
scientists, thinkers and researchers to bring their bold ideas and
visions of the future to life, especially across areas like
sustainability, outer space, health and other critical global
challenges. It will also be a platform to trial and demonstrate
the latest technological discoveries, with prototypes that will
continually evolve from emerging start-ups and established
technology enterprises.
